Bluetooth 4.0 BLE, Bluetooth 4.0 low energy, Bluetooth low energy, Bluetooth LE, or BLE, marketed as Bluetooth Smart, is a wireless personal area network technology designed and marketed by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group aimed at novel applications in the healthcare, fitness, security, and home entertainment industries. Compared to "Classic" Bluetooth, BLE is intended to provide considerably reduced power consumption and cost while maintaining a similar communication range.
Bluetooth LE was originally introduced under the name Wibree by Nokia in 2006. It was merged into the main Bluetooth standard in 2010 with the adoption of the Bluetooth Core Specification Version 4.0. Mobile operating systems including iOS, Android, Windows Phone and BlackBerry, as well as OS X and Windows 8, natively support Bluetooth low energy. The Bluetooth SIG predicts more than 90 percent of Bluetooth-enabled smartphones will support the low energy standard by 2018.
Now, our R&D team integrated the Bluetooth low energy with OBD GPS tracking device together, purpose is to make user reading the OBD tracking device datas (such as RPM, ECT, MPH, Fuel consumption, etc) in Real-time through the OBD GPS tracker easy connect with mobile devices . User also can build a Heads-Up Display(HUD) for their car. For more information, please click our OBD GPS Tracker with Bluetooth low energy device T363B.
